Ingredients
- 1 small head cauliflower or 2 cups cauliflower rice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar or honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1/2 white onion diced
- 1 medium carrot diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup frozen peas
- Green onions for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- If using fresh cauliflower, cut it into florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower reaches a rice-like consistency. Skip this step if using store-bought cauliflower rice.
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Stir well and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the beaten egg and cook for about 1 minute. Gently scramble with a spatula, then remove the egg from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onion and carrot, and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until they start to soften. Stir in the minced garlic and frozen peas, cooking for another minute until the garlic is fragrant and the peas are heated through.
- Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly browned.
- Pour the soy sauce mixture over the cauliflower rice and stir to combine. Return the cooked egg to the skillet, mixing it into the fried rice. Remove from heat.
- Transfer the cauliflower fried rice to plates or bowls. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
